The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an early riser was dropping off a package when he noticed something odd. The UPS driver kept stopping mid-routine, staring intently into the sky above the building. Finally, someone asked him what he was doing. Turns out, he’d spotted a pigeon perched on top of the roof, preening its feathers just like a retired mailman might adjust his cap. Everyone had a good laugh and went back to their business—except for one regular who now checks the ceiling every time he drops off a package.

2. In the dim light of dawn, a little girl walked into The UPS Store with her father’s hand in hers. As she approached the counter, she stopped abruptly and pointed upward, whispering, ‘Daddy, what’s that?’ Her dad looked up and saw nothing but the usual ceiling tiles. Smiling down at his daughter he said, ‘Honey, it’s just our old friend, the air vent.’ They both laughed, and as they left, the girl turned around and shouted, ‘Next time I see something strange, will you tell me again?’ Dad nodded, already thinking about how to explain Wi-Fi antennas next time.

3. A delivery driver arrived early one morning, fumbling with packages in the gloom. As he unlocked the door, a small voice asked from behind him, 'Excuse me, do you know where I can mail a unicorn?' The delivery driver turned around, rubbing his eyes sleepily. ‘I’m sorry,’ he said, ‘but we only accept letters and packages here.’ A tiny hoof appeared from behind him, tapping impatiently on the counter. ‘But I really want to send my unicorn to Rainbow Land!’ The driver smiled gently. ‘Why don’t you just drop it off at the park? They’ll love it there!’

4. A curious pug named Max followed its owner into The UPS Store one afternoon. As the door swung shut behind them, everyone inside heard a tiny voice exclaim: ‘Wow, look at all these boxes!’ Max immediately ran over to inspect every box, sniffing and wagging his tail excitedly. A nearby delivery driver paused from sorting packages to scratch the curious little dog behind the ears. 'Hey, who’s this furry friend?' he asked with a smile. Max wagged even harder, as if proudly showing off his newfound adventure. Everyone in the store burst out laughing, making it clear that Max had just become an unexpected but much-loved regular.
